    Bucket C contains bearings that are 3.2 centimeters in diameter.

    Explanation:

    Bucket C contains bearings that are 3.2 centimeters in diameter will have the most weight of the given buckets.

    Weight is a function of the vertical force exerted on a body as a result of gravity.

    Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

    The gravity on the three buckets is 9.8m/s²

    The mass of the ball bearings should determine the bucket with the most weight from the given choices. Mass is the amount of matter in a substance. The larger diameter ball, has more matter and will eventually have the most mass from the given choices. This will make it weigh the most from the given option.

    The ball with the largest diameter will contain more matter compared to the one with the least diameter.
